®5 SMOKE Li IS MONEL SAVER Inspector Charges Men Who Fight the Observance With i Shortsightedness. "Every owner of a steam plant in Atlanta who is violating the smoke or dinance could comply with the ordi nance and at the same time make his power cheaper,” said Smoke Inspector Paul McMichael today. -AU the opposition to the smoke cru sade is nothing less than short-sight edness. Manufacturers and other own ers of steam nlants will not only render B ztMx «-rp».'e to their fellow citizens by stopping the smoke, but they will fH ve money for themselves. “Smoke Is simply incomplete combus tion Perfect combustion means more powei for the same money, and no nmoke. "There are a number of concerns which will put in smoke consumers and guarantee that they will pay for them telves in decreased coal bills or the in (,ettM'd efficiency of plants in periods of time varying from six months to three years.
